Published by the Center for Research on the Plurality in the Mekong Region (CERP). Although the text is not extensive it contains numerous references to archival and original materials for further research. From the abstract:
This research has three main objectives: 1) to explore the history of the cross-cultural marriage of Thais and Westerners, 2) to review the state of knowledge and approaches used in the cross cultural study , especially the marriage between Thai women and foreigners, so that the dynamics of the phenomena can be understood, and 3) to identify the related issues that need further study.

Please note: New Mandala encourages vigorous debate. However, for the moment we will only be publishing high-quality comments that make original contributions to discussion. There will, of course, still be space for pithy, humorous, eccentric and cheeky input. Short and sweet will usually trump long and involved. Repetitive ranting, unimaginative point-scoring and idle abuse will not be entertained. Comments which carry a real name are also more likely to be approved. Thank you for your ongoing interest and contributions.
